b-1968
Colombian/American Artist based in Houston TX, USA.
Born an educated in Bogota, Colombia, at the age of 30 immigrate to The USA in search of ... herself.
My artistic journey as a painter is characterized by the large format, the fusion of painting and poetry, the concealed presence of bilingual verses, inspiration from my childhood landscapes, and the utilization of natural materials. Through my artworks, I convey emotions, personal narratives, and an ever-present exploration of identity and surroundings.
